When a person gets a cut on their skin, the skin cells that were at the location of the cut are gone. The cells around it will sense this and start reproducing and make new cells to replace the dead or damaged cells. They’ll stop the bleeding and form a scab, which eventually falls off.

In a human body give an example of a where mitosis may occur Give an example of where meiosis would occur?

Mitosis occurs in somatic cells to generate new cells for growth and repair throughout the body. For example, mitosis occurs in skin cells to replace old or damaged skin cells. Meiosis occurs in reproductive cells to produce gametes (sperm and eggs). For example, meiosis occurs in the testes to produce sperm cells in males and in the ovaries to produce egg cells in females.
